Hello,
You haven't mentioned whether your query us regarding UG or PG course. As per the information available in your profile we consider that you are seeking admission in to UG course. The cut off in 2019 in round 3 for general category was as follows
- NLU, Guwahati:1471
- NLU, Shimla:1299
Looking at the cut off it is very difficult to get seat in these NLUs considering your rank. However, cut off is subjected to change depending on number of candidates appeared, difficulty of the exam and number of seats available for admission etc.
To know the possible colleges in which you may get seat you can use our CLAT college predictor

According to the cutoff of NLU Assam and NLU Shimla the closing rank for being admittes in NLU Assam is 1584 and to get admitted in an NLU Shimla the closing rank is 786 for general category.

I have secured an AIR-2878 in clat 2019.do I have a chance in NLU assam,NLU vizag or NLU Tirchy in the current scenario?
Hey there
NLUs have higher cutoff and as you have not mentioned your category then in general category you have very less chances of getting any NLUs. I suggest you to join private colleges for law.
Check cutoff of clat

Good luck
I scored 102.5 in clat 2019 and my rank is 10136... what is my chance in nlu assam, nlu aurangabad , hpnlu and in nlu sonipat?
Hey.
The cut off for admission in any of the National Law Universities through CLAT in the previous year was a rank in the range of 1600 for the general category. Hence with a rank of 10136 your chances for an NLU under the vacanies are very less. Usually there are vacancies in the lower NLUs as people leave their seats for other colleges. Various NLUs have started announcing their vacant seats like NLU Raipur. But a rank under 3000 is fair for vacancies. This year the vacanies are quite a lot, so you can stil apply if uoud like to try. But to be honest with your rank if you belong to the general category you have hardly any chances.
Best of luck
